Good catch!  I was surprised that fchown(2) and fchmod(2) silently did
nothing, but that’s how it is.

Pushed together with a test, which allowed me to find a related bug
(more serious, because it’s about permissions on the socket’s
directory):

  9dfeb4e support: ‘mkdir-p’ sets permissions when directory already exists.
  f5b7411 service: Really set ownership and permissions on Unix sockets.

(BTW, I have just renamed ‘master’ to ‘main’, but ‘master’ hasn’t been
deleted yet from the server; make sure to pick ‘main’ and adjust your
Git config.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
